Bridging Resource Gaps in Financial Capacity

Challenge

A german, mid-sized family-owned multinational logistics company with a history of over 150 years needed support in scaling its IT-, Finance-, and Data-Service team-recruitment processes. The company faced not only pressure to produce savings on the administrative-staff costs but simultaneously had to deal with resource gaps and hiring delays, which slowed down financial operations and hindered its productivity. Additionally, the need for professionals fluent in German to seamlessly integrate into their team and navigate local business practices specific to the logistics sector was putting further pressure on the client.

Solution

Our company is acting as loyal partner to this customer since more 10 years. During this time, we seamlessly adapted our capacity (FTE)output to the needs of the given state the client was facing. By doing this, we built up scalable IT-, Finance- and Data-Management-Teams which are closely integrated into the client's business. In IT we operate using agile-methodologies, and create software using diverse technologies ranging from Java-, C#, .Net, to SQL programming. The client also used our architecture expertise when it came to selecting its business-critical EAI-platform for which today we even offer a 24/7 on-call-duty service covering the globe. In the field of finance, we helped the customer dramatically increase its fiancial flexiblity by reducing the sum of the outstanding receivables by 78%.
